American Cockroaches

Cockroaches are often one of the most hated household pests. They can cause quite a commotion, especially when you have flying cockroaches coming in you. There are 4,500 cockroach species in the world. In Australia, there are six common cockroach species that plague houses and businesses, one of which is the American cockroach.

One of the common family roaches is the American cockroach or also called the"Palmetto Water Bug." It is one of the biggest cockroaches that is known to invade homes and businesses. Usually, they live outdoors but can also gain entrance in buildings and household areas.

The ootheca (egg case) containing up to 16 eggs is conveyed by the female for a couple of days before being stored. Sometimes, these egg cases are cemented down and tend to be grouped. It brings forth in 1 to 2 months. Nymphs more often than not create in 6 months to a year, yet it can take as long as 15 months.

The American cockroach loves dark and humid places such as sub floors, basements, kitchens, attic, roof voids and bathrooms. Apart from thriving as outdoor pests, American cockroaches frequently inhabit drains and found in coastal areas of Australia.

Problematic infestations of American Cockroaches in residential buildings are uncommon. Their large size means that they are easy to view and catch. Their taste for warm temperatures also slows their development. As American cockroaches are inclined to enter buildings via pipes infrastructure, building foundations, or beneath doors, quitting up these areas will help handle initial infestations. Residual insecticides are effective.
